Your input will help local leaders shape the plan for the area’s future.

Over the next 25 years this region’s population is expected to grow by over 150,000 people. We’ll also need to adapt to driverless cars, a changing climate, artificial intelligence and job automation, political polarization, growing inequality, and a doubling of the aging population.

Change is happening fast and because these changes will affect our lives, we need to prepare and plan.

A Greater Madison Vision is a regional effort to do just that: create a plan for successful growth and development as change occurs over the next few decades.

The survey takes approximately 10 minutes and shows four possible futures for the area. Throughout the survey
